I just saw him in a concert(I think he was an opening act for Ben Harper.)  My opinion is that he makes very cool songs.  I find some of them boring because he seems to be monotone, but when he gets out of that and actaully puts some expression and different notes in his voice his songs really shine. I have to admit that I haven't really heard his music much except maybe on the radio..but all the ones I remember hearing on the radio seem to have that kind of expression in his singing.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Jack Johnson!  My friend had me listen to his stuff over the summer and I was hooked.  His voice is like silk.  "Taylor" has been on VH1 a couple times, I hope the general public takes notice of him.  The video is annoying though.

I listen to Jack from time to time.  His music is nice and mellow and I love it.  Y'all definitely need to check him out.

I LOVE Jack! He is one of my favorite artists of all time.  He's had some cd's out for a while- he is definetly not new to the music world, but he is to the public world.

I wish more people knew about him...he deserves it.

The "Taylor" video is alright...it gets annoying with Ben Stiller in it (even though I love that guy)

is anyone going to his August 8th LA show?

I LOVE Jack Johnson! His music is awesome and it's the best to listen to when you just want to chill! Almost makes me feel like I'm in Hawaii, haha

That's lucky Holly!!

I'd heard of him before and had a couple of his songs but never really bothered to check out much else until I bought "On and On" the other day. I really like him! Hopefully I'll be buying "In Between Dreams" soon

there's only four seasons
and this one's almost gone
these nights feel so good
but this one's almost gone

My friend got me listening to him. I like a lot of his songs, and there really good to listen to on a day where i don't feel like doing much except laying around and listening to music.
I have two of his cds.
